New combo shot shows promise for kidney health in diabetes patients
NCT ID NCT06131372
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a new medicine called CagriSema (a combination of two drugs) can reduce kidney damage in people with chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, and overweight or obesity. About 626 participants received either CagriSema, one of the two drugs alone, or a placebo for around 35 weeks. The main goal was to see if CagriSema lowers a key marker of kidney damage (UACR) better than the other treatments.
